THURSDAY EVENING, Sf.ptf.miif.r 14, 1843. The Pellllenl Abolition!.!.. ; Tlio existence of tho Abolitionists as a political party has boon or brief duration. Previous to their political organization they wero as a humane and philanthropic description of individuals, deeply impressed with the belief that the moral ovils resulting from slavery might he mitigated, and the primary causo removed, by earnest appeals to tho hearts and conscioncos of those who alone possessed" the power to grant their requests. While they occupied that position, aud relied on that moans, the body of the peoplo in the free States were disposed to regard them with great kindness, although few out of the fraternity could believe with them that there was much hope of immediate succoss. Had they remained in tho position they first occupied, these kindly feelings would have advanced ; and indeed towards all such as have refused to become instruments in the hands of political aspirants, those fuel-ings are still cherished. But this is an ago of political adventuro, and scarce any thing is permitted to escape being drawn into the vortex of party. Tho number of men aspiring to lead and give law to their fellow citizens, is vastly too groat to be content with the chanco of promotion furnished by two parties, and hence it was that in 1841, some who thought thoir claims for political preferment had in some way been neglected, or culpably overlooked, turned their attention to tho Abolitionists as affording material for a new political party, which, if it did not promise a speedy increaso of numbers, sufficient to carry elections, might enable them to coalesce with some other party, and stipulate for a portion of the honor and offices. After considerable preparation in all parts of the State, a convention of souio hundred and fifty persona assembled in Columbus, in December, 1841. As this was the first attempt to transform that which had boon before regarded as nn association of humane and pious men, into a political party, it was consid ered incumbent upon the projectors to put forward a manifesto containing tho elements of their political faith. The timo was favorable A considcrublo majority of the wholo peoplo of tho Union wero believed to bo dissatisfied with tho deleterious iufluenco of Southern policy upon tho industrial interests of the froo States, and wero tho more ready to rcceivo the declaration of tho new party as the evidenco of huncst and sinccro convictions. Tho condition of tho country was gradually growing worse, as tho Tarilf was from year to year decreasing ; and the tenor of their address was decidedly in favor of tho di rcct action of the Government to insure protection to American commcrco and manufactures, which they boldly proclaimed to havo been sacrificed to rrratify the slavo holding influence. I hose had al ways been tho sentiments of tho Whigs; and al- though that party could not see how tho new party, with its scanty numbers, could succeed in effecting what they had so often lulled to achieve, they felt no inducement to oiler opposition to this new attempt to rc-osscrt their principles striving to believe, though against evidenco that alt was in good faith. How far they wero from aright understanding of the influences then at work, will hereafter appear. The party was organized : they took the field and, by their means, the Locofocos, tho worst enemies of their published political faith tho veriest creatures of the iufluenco they professed to combat got possession of, and still wield tho government of the Stato : and yet this boosted Liberty l'arty exult in this stato of tilings. To show that wo fairly represent the sentiments of tlio liberty party, wo will mako a few extracts from their address and resolutions of 18 1 1. After shaking of the neglect of tlio President to attend to the interests of tlio free Slates, ninong other things they allude to tlio unequal distribution of tho proceeds of the sales of tlio public lands, by reason of siavo representation, and say: " Nor was tlio slave iufluenco satisfied with this concession. It insisted that tho distribution itself should cease, whenever tho duties should bo increased ahovo W percent., the oltjectof which was to exclude freo labor from all legislation at home as ctfec-lually aud completely as it had been from all regard in negotiation abroad. And this arrogant demand was submitted to, bocauso submission wns necessary to proscrvo tlio unity of the party. Thcso facts and numerous others of similar character, and constant occtirrcnco, have at length convinced us that no manly and rcsolulo resistance to slavo holding pro-tensions no bold and energetic assertion of the great principles of constitutional liberty can bo rationally ox ected from cither of tho two existing parties." lint it was not in the body of tlio address alono that tlio determination to contend for the protection of froo labor by a Tariff, was manifested. The samo convention that put forward tho address passed tho following resolution I " Kcsolvci, That we desire a full measure of protection and regard shall bo oxtondod to tho States whero slavery exists, so long as thru ihnll think fit anil right lo eonliiiue its ezinlrnre, wo nevertheless insist that it is tho duty siort fully la prolrcl the interests, and onlarire tlio market for the product of free labor, now every wlioro depressed, in coiisequenco of tho dereliction of tins duty on tho part ot llie Imv-. eminent, by appropriate doiucslio legislation and foreign negotiation." Hero wo have tlio reasons of the political Abolitionists for the formation of what they call tlio " Liberty Party," tho unequivocal declaration that they looked upon protection to American labor as the first duty of Government, and its omission na a good and sufficient roason for a withdrawal of all confidence. They to bo auro mourned over tho evils of slavery, but distinctly referred its abolition to tho States where it existed, and treated of it not in a moral but in a political point of view, as a thing which came in conflict with tho interests of freo labor. These eiiliuiunts wore reiterated by another convention of tho same party, at Columbus, in January, 1811 This party is impatient of all criticism, of exam ination of their proceedings, and hold every man who doubts their policy as an enemy to rational liberty, and tlio welfare of tho whole human race ; while they cutttend for tlio privilege of rioting in tho abtiso of every ono whu differs in opinion with them. Thoy alono aro orthodox, and it is the height of impiety to dissent from their notions. This ia certainly not a christian course. To denounce and banish all who cannot soo aa wo Jo, ia not in compliance, with gospel charity. Prosperity both in church and state is not to bo accomplished by promoting divisions, and building up of numerous new sects. High' tho contrary i Union is tlio grand level that gives efficacy to human c Hurts. " Divide others and conquer," is the watch-word of the marauder, and not let ua divido that wo may conquer. This is exemplified in all history. The peoplo of Israel whilo thoy constituted ono government, were formidable to all the stirmundin g nations but after they had divided into tho kingdoms of Israel and Judoh, they soon fell a prey, and were carried into captivity. The samo fata must attend all divisions of people, whoso interests are the samo. This now party hoa been in existence aa a political body not quite two years, It liaa been in the Hold one electioneering campaign ; and is busily organizing for another. It set out with tlio words ' protection to free labor," oniblazonod on its banner, aud tho oxproasion or an unalterable purpoao to nail that banner to the mast, and sink or swim with its defeat or success. And what is now its condition in that respect? liaa it maintained its political inleg-.rity ? Although we regretted ita political organization, wo should bo happy in having ita acta justify us ill answering in the affirmative, ilul truth interpo ses its veto and forbids such a response. Ambition, we fear, has triumphed over principlo ; artful men have outwitted the unsuspecting, and shaped the action of the party to the accomplishment of sinister ends. It ia well known that of the four or fivo master spirits who officiated at the political organization of the party, and who have busied themselves most in its progress sinco, three of the number reside in Hamilton county : That under their auspices, a convention of tho party for that county was held a few weeks since s that one of these gentlemen is a can didate for Congress, and another for tlio Stato Senate. Under these circumstances, there can bo no doubt but that the doings of that convention, published as they aro in the Philanthropist, the organ of the party, exhibits its present political creed. That convention passed a groat many resolutions on vari ous items of doctrine ; but wo Bhull confine our remarks to one only, as it conies in direct conflict with the grand bulwark of their political faith, their solemn league and covenant, ratified with so much seeming devotion in this city. The following is that resolution: " Resolved, That wo are ooposod to a Tariff do- signcd exclusively fur protection, and especially to a Tariff which admits wool for negro clothes free, or nearly free of duty ; while on every pound of sugar which a poor man uses, he is compelled to pay a tax of from 4 to 0 cents ; and we are in favor of a revenue Tarilf derived chiefly from luxuries, and not Irom charges on tho consumption ot tlio poor, affording incidental aid and protection to Amcrlcun free labor!" Here we have an official renunciation of the po litical creed of the so called "Liberia Party!" and the voluntary adoption of the Southern and Locofoco creed in its place. A creed, (which with the child ish exception about "wool for negro clothes" which a statesman ought to bo ashamed to utter) was published by Messrs. Calhoun, McDuffi, and tho whole corps of Southern nullificrs, years before the Liberty Party was organized, " Wo will organize, (soy thcso men) a party whose object shall bo to establish protection, and because tho Whig party dare mako 'no manly and energetic assertion' of tho rights of tho free States in that respect;" and in tho space of ono pear and ahalf this indomitahlo "Liberty Party" doffs its banner of protection, and hoists that of tho South, on which is labeled in glaring capitals, on tho ono side, "JVo Tariff for Protection," and "A Revenue Tariff" on tho other ! Was there, over since tlio promulgation of tlio first political croed known to history, such a rapid declension such nn absoluto Slid entire abandonment of tho fundamental principle of a political party? A complcto transformation of all its elements, in a period of time so short, that before the child could be tntight to lisp its ob jects, they had been repudiated by their authors, ero tho cock had crowed tho third time, thero wero none among tho leaders to do them revorenco. Forthoappoaranceofthis political phenomenon this melancholy evidence of human frailty, and cunning combined, wo will not here assign mutives : tho thing is too plain to require it at our hands. Tho muny havo becotno victims to the ambition of tho aspiring few, who lead in this matter of political insincerity ; and wo feel a well grounded confidenco that all that will bo wanting to produce its utter ex tinction, will bo a knowledge on tho part of thoso who honestly believed that what they so boastfully promised to clfect, they would bo the last to abandon. One short year ago, had an honest member of the Liberty Party, (and there may bo many such) been asked why he had ceased to act with the Whigs, ho could answer that it was because tlio Liberty men wero professedly fur a more decided system of protection to American manufactures. To this as a matter of principle, however wo might doubt its practicability by means of a division among tho friends of tho policy wo could not object Dot that answer con no lunger bo given ; the Liberty Party has repudiated the doctrines of protection : they now go for a rcriinie Tariff only ; and hence, if one of tho members should now bo asked the samo question, we know of nothing clso he could say, than that ho acted with tho party, becauso a year and a half ago ho joined it. This will not bo satisfactory to tho mind of any honest man. You might as well sny thut because you had joined a society which two years ago, proclaimed a never ending war against king Alcohol, you would still cherish your member ship, though by some chango of its creed you should bo required to devour half a gallon of spirits daily. Such inconsistency we will not bclicvo Americans capable of. In presenting thcso things to I ho public, we dis avow all hostility to Abolitionists as such. Wc have nn sympathy with slavery or its advocates ; all wo have in view, is to disabuse the public mind in regard to the insincerity of thoso who organized a political party with certain principles, and almost before tho ink with which they wero written had timo to dry, ignobly turned their backs upon them, and went over to tlio enemy. Our object is to herald thcso fuels, and to undeceive the unwary. For this puroso wo call upon tho conductors of the Whig press all ovor tho State, to bo aiding and assisting in tho matter. We prescribo no form, but wo insist upon its being dono in such manner as each may think proer. nifiitUon t'oHinr, Tlio Whigs of Madisou county held their Convention on the '-'ml inst., and nominated Dr. Au.uilla Tolasd for Representative.

All this he went through for ths Whig causo alone. He hid little or no ambition to gratify, he was content with tho honors already received at tho hands of his fellow-citizens, whilo his early pursuits and associations strongly inclined him to private life. Hut he was not content to see his nativo and beloved Slato transferred to Loco r'nenism, and when a portion of his fellow-citizens indicated a wish thst he should meet tho veteran leader of that cause ho yielded to their wishes, and placed tho question of his re-election before the people, on tho broad ground of National politics. Ho avowed at the outset, a purpose to fight under tlio amide folds of tho Whig party, his measures of relief snd reform, their measures, and his preferenco for tho Presidency, HENIIY CLAY of Kentucky. In upwards of ninety speeches, lie repeated this declaration, and tho result whilo it stands out a glorious monument of his intrepid firmness and decision, proclaims to tho country that his choico for a Whig President was not less popular, than his eloquent support of Whig measures was eminently successful. We repeat, a debt of graliludo ia due to this ahlo and triumphant leader. Sure wc are it will not bo witheld, either by tho Whigs of Tciincsaeo, or their brethren in other Slates.

Ilaihington G74c. From die National litlclligenccr. Jnnliu on the Tnrifr. This is the third of a series of tracts bv the au thor of "The Crisis 0 Me Country," a pamphlet known to all Whigs who hod to do with tho Tippecanoe conflict of 18-10. We quoto the summing up in the finale : all which, if well proved, is no small thing. The propositions shell out so plumply that every one will doubtless wish to seo the proof. Here tney aro : What wk have Proved. It will probably bo admitted that the following things, among others, have been established : 1. That the great bulk of the trade of this country is domestic. 2. That buvinrr too much in our forcicn trodo has been tho causo of all our commercial and currency difficulties. 3. That it is impossible that such difficulties should arise from the action of domestic trade. 4. That this buying too much draws tho specie out of the country, and undermines the currency. 5. That tlio only way to prevent this buying too much is too establish and maintain a rcslrictivo and protectivo policy. 0. That tho only parties boncfittcd by this immense injury to the country, are foreign Governments, foreign manufacturers, and a fow importing merchants among ourselves. 7. That we can never havo a forcirn trado profit able to the country, or otherwise than injurous, till this practice of buying too much of foreign nations be suppressed. 8. That the importance of foreign trade is com-moi )y overrated, and that American self-dependence is a more sate reliance. !). That the products of manufactures are cheap ened, and the wages of labor enhanced, by protectivo nuues. 10. That both American labor and American cap ital are victims of European capital and labor, on tlio platform of freo trado. 11. Thut Amorican freedom and independence are put in jeopardy by our foreign trade, as heretofore conducted. 12. That tho entire controversy is between the ri guts 01 American labor and tho claims of JMirope an uespotism. l'X That wo are a world in ourselves, and have no need to desiro or seek a commcrco with foreicrn na tions that will not render an equivalent for what wo ucstow. 14. That foreign trade, unregulated, is competent to destroy both itself, and domestic trado, and that such is its tendency. 15. That domestic manufactures employ and put into active aim proiitame uso a vast amount ot American capital, on which labor deiicnds, and that the greater tlio number and extent of homo manufactures, the belter the chances of lobor. 111. That tho commercial system of Europe are nostiio to American interests, and require counter vailing reirtilations. 17. That Dritish policy contemplates tho revival of colonial dependence on our part, and that such is thu tendency of the actual system of trado between the two countries. 18. That a Protectivo Tariff is indispensable to our prosperity as a nation, and is a truly patriotic measure, equally important to ull sections of the country and all classes of American citizens, if we except a few importing merchants, leagued with agents of foreign and hosiilu interests, who aro willing to make their fortunes on tlio ruins of a great coumry. And sundry other cognate results, for which see tho text jtnifrlcnn Indn.lrr. Tho Newark Daily Advertiser says it ia stated that two-thirds of tho cotton yarn now spinning in Patterson is on contract for the China market Thus it ia that American industry and enterprise, under the fostering iniiucnco 01 the American system, la ex tending to tho remotest corners of tho irlobo. As the Amcricnn Manchester thrives on tho profits of a trado with China, ttic neighboring former will find a ready and extended homo market for his produce. The Philadelphia United States Gazctio says that a gentleman called at the counting house of ono of tlio iron merchants of that city to purchase tiny tons of pig iron. In tho courso of the negotiation the merchant was led to inquire to what purpose the iron was to no applied, "lo mako weights lor lankco clocks." "Why, what can you do wild so mony clocks?" "They aro shipped to Enuland." Think of that ! Fifty tons of iron for clock weights, each probably less than live pounds !

The following facts wo learned from a Western gentleman a day or two sinco.

The whole cost of the water-works is shout 10,111)0 : and, although tho colerpriso is of very recent commencement, already two cotton factories, a woolen factory, and fivo or six heavy grist-mills sre going up on this wster privilege, whilo there is abundant power fur many tunes tho number. The location ia directly on tlio Miami Canal, requiring but a short cut to load and unload Wheat Flour, t'otlon, ic, directly from the Canal into the factories ami mills : llio distance is buttwenty-live- miles from Cincinnati, a city uf seventy thou sand inhabitants, ot as largo aa Huston waa in INK); and Coal, Iron, cVc, can be delivered hero from the Ohio as cheaply as above high-water mark in Cm cinnati. Cullon from below can b delivered at ilia factories as cheaply ss in New Orleans. All this ia in the midst of a rich, well settled, thrifty Farming country, whera provisions coal ou tire avcraga but half aa much as at Lowell, while Coiton and nearly overy other material is much cheaper. Every tiling, therefore, conspires to justify the confident belief that here the foundation hits been laid on a City destined to rival the rroot Eastern motmn. olis of Maufacturing. The advantage of such an enterprise to the whole surrounding region cannot bo over-estimated. It win increaso tho value of all fixed properity, and nearly double that of Labor and ita products. It will tend to counteract the disproportion of the sex esthe excess of MaleB in the West, of the Females in the bast, which is now great, and greatly to be regretted. It will rcduco tho price generally of whatever tho neighboring peoplo have to buy and increaso that of tho articles thev now nrodnen 10 sr. cess, tending to produco a wholosomo equilibrium in all things. This is one instance among a hundred of similor bonign enterprises now approaching thoir consummation under tho genial shelter of our Nnur 'I'.rilf Tho hundreds would bo thousands, if tho hope that the present Tariff would be permonent were ripened to a certainty.

"Shall I hold your horse, sir?" said a nice-looking, well-spoken boy at tho uppor reservoir.

"my lime leuow, would you like to learn a trade? if you would, you shall havo a placo in a printing office." "Thank yer honor," said a portly looking Irishwoman, me and me four children live in that house there, and maka a decent living; I should not like to part with the boy at all." " Phot house," referred to, waa a wretch-od mud hovel a shanty with a Binglo room, and yet tho mother contrived to bring up four children in it with so much contentment, Uiat sho was unwilling to part with one, alUiough it might evidently hove bettered hia fortunes. "How strangely is society divided," said my friend, who took his seat in the bug gy as wo were about rcturniug to the city.

I bclievo we are beginning to find out Uie folly of making sacrifices to keep up appearances. Tho credit of a man in business ia now strengthened in a house plainly furnished, is frugal in his living, man ages a safe penny, make a decent appearance wiUi- out the aid ot tashtuuaute extravagance, does nothing for effect, and makes no costly eDtertarnsr.enai ' How mnercnt it wra ui trOU. It was a furious contest for extravagant and costly rivalry, li on man in business hired a largo bouse, furnished it splendidly, kept a sptnbing pair of bays aud a butonche, another caughc tho infection and also hired a larger house, furnished it more splendidly, and sported a more olegont barouche or vis-a-vis than his neighbor; and thus competition, rivalry, and fashionablo opposition involved groat outlays; failure followed failure, and in a short time Uiese aspiring bloods crowded upon each other in tho list of bankrupU. It is incredible how evil examples are closely imita- tod. If my neighbor, no bettor off Uian myself, Uvea extravagantly, sees company, givea good dinners, has a box at the opera, and keeps a fast trotter, I am in a measure restless and discontented till I can do the same: Uie contagion spreads we are all in tho infected district, and all have a touch of the disease, all take the samo medicine, and all are equally prostrated. Now if we were more disposed to nnilato what was worthy of imitation, economy, propriety, comfort without ostentation, simplicity in living, plainness of manners, and absence ot allsclt-sutu-ciency, how much better we would all be off in the world. When shall the reform commence? Wo answer now, from this very moment Better times prevail: soy what we will, wc hove better times. The sur face begins to be smooth, the billows and upheav- ings aro less agitated; confidenco is beginning to bo gradually restored; what business is dono, is dono with less profit it is truo, but with more security; it is hard to earn a silver dollar, yet, witli ordinary managomcnt, it will go farther and provido much more than it did in IrvKi. We havo seen Uie worst ; let us improve tho present by introducing every where a ririd economy, and save a six-pence when ever he can do so. Let us begin by discarding every tiling looking liko show and ostentation; let us study comfort and givo up luxurica altogether. Alow months ago 1 was led by curiosity to attend a sale of splendid furniture in a spacious houso lit ono of our fashionable squares, Every Uiing was on tho most costly scslo, and paid for out of Uio money procured from the unguarded credit system. Looking-glasses of $500 each; window curtains $o00 each; satin-covered rosewood chairs, too frail and delicate to sit upon; the whole outlay for turni-lure was somewhat over if 10,000, and brought scarcely one half that sum. I knew the lady and her two daughters well; they wore Uiin and pale from want of a healthy laborious exercise; Uiey looked discon tented and unsettled, out of sorts with every thing; Uiey were about to enter upon compulsion, on a new courso of life; to pursue a rigid economy, to live upon their actual earnings, and it made them uneasy and fretful. A short time after the sole, passing a small ncot two story house, of 100 rent, one oftho young ladies tapped at the window, Uircw it it up, and asked mc to come in. I waa surprised and pleased al thn chango I saw in every thing. The girla looked fieah and rosy, were dressed with great ncauicss and Uio mother appeared quite happy and contented. Every thing waa plain; a Kidderminster carpet was on tho floor, choirs cheap and substantial, on Uio mantlo-piece were vases filled with fresh flowers, instead of Uio $500 clock and Ormula candclobraa. "We take great oxcreise now," said tlio mother, "having no carriage wo are obliged to walk; the girls rub Uie furniture, dust the things and go lo market; we have nothing aupcrfluoua; we purchase for our family just on half wo did in Place: we keep but one girl, and when breakfast and dinner aro ready, you canntit imagine bow hungry wo are, how wo enjoy our meal, everything tssirts sweet for we prepare il ettrselveo, and we sleep like tops; every thing has changed for the better." And to it had; thoy had discovered the fully of competitioii, ef striving to liva as extravagant as their neighbors, nnd had eoocrasl down to the comforts and aeotiomy of life, and were realizing aubstanUal benefits from Uio chango; Uiey had Uio moral courage to rise above tho sneers of tho proud and Uie fictitioua sympathy of professing friends. They are now contented, and contentment is happiness. The Mineral District of Ohio. I said Uiat the variety of our productions waa a moat invaluablo feature in our country ; and I cannot call to mind a Slato in Uie Union, which haa more wealth in Uiia respect than Ohio. Pennsylvania hue a vast amount of coal and iron. But then Pennsylvania haa nut aa much arable land aa Ohio, and ia totally deficient in Uiat great alluvial plain, which like Egypt la capable of feeding indefinite numbers of men and caltlo. New York hos groat commercial advantages; but U'on Now York has no coal, and has but a small part of the groat western grain region. Tennessee has as groat a variety ol products, ss any State ; but then Tennesseo cannot approach Ohio, in Uie growth of wheat So that, 1 Uiink, Ohio on Uio whole, haa aa ffreat a variety of natural advantages, and productions, as any other Stale whatever. Of thcso, Uio mineral district from which I writo, is not tho least On tho Ohio river, it extends nearly the wholo distance from tho Scioto to tho Muskingum, and runs northeastwardly until it reach es Uio Istke. It covers probably one fourth Uio aur-face of Uio State, and contain full as much of coal, iron, salt and freestone, with some leas important nia- ii nais, aa tne population ot the Stato will ovor need. The beat bodies of coal and iron, are traversed bv the Ohio public works, or touched hv the Ohio river : so that these treasures of Uie useful arts, are accessible and marketable. But one of Uio most important features of Uiis district is, Uio land is all mllira-lable, and the Slalo loses not ono acre of productive land, by Uio fact that it embosoms valuable miner-als. It is hilly grazing: land. Hut the verv nlae r,,- dairics, and for sheep. The corn and bread must be supplied from tho mora arable districts.

THURSDAY EVENING, Sf.ptf.miif.r 14, 1843. The Pellllenl Abolition!.!.. ; Tlio existence of tho Abolitionists as a political party has boon or brief duration. Previous to their political organization they wero as a humane and philanthropic description of individuals, deeply impressed with the belief that the moral ovils resulting from slavery might he mitigated, and the primary causo removed, by earnest appeals to tho hearts and conscioncos of those who alone possessed" the power to grant their requests. While they occupied that position, aud relied on that moans, the body of the peoplo in the free States were disposed to regard them with great kindness, although few out of the fraternity could believe with them that there was much hope of immediate succoss. Had they remained in tho position they first occupied, these kindly feelings would have advanced ; and indeed towards all such as have refused to become instruments in the hands of political aspirants, those fuel-ings are still cherished. But this is an ago of political adventuro, and scarce any thing is permitted to escape being drawn into the vortex of party. Tho number of men aspiring to lead and give law to their fellow citizens, is vastly too groat to be content with the chanco of promotion furnished by two parties, and hence it was that in 1841, some who thought thoir claims for political preferment had in some way been neglected, or culpably overlooked, turned their attention to tho Abolitionists as affording material for a new political party, which, if it did not promise a speedy increaso of numbers, sufficient to carry elections, might enable them to coalesce with some other party, and stipulate for a portion of the honor and offices. After considerable preparation in all parts of the State, a convention of souio hundred and fifty persona assembled in Columbus, in December, 1841. As this was the first attempt to transform that which had boon before regarded as nn association of humane and pious men, into a political party, it was consid ered incumbent upon the projectors to put forward a manifesto containing tho elements of their political faith. The timo was favorable A considcrublo majority of the wholo peoplo of tho Union wero believed to bo dissatisfied with tho deleterious iufluenco of Southern policy upon tho industrial interests of the froo States, and wero tho more ready to rcceivo the declaration of tho new party as the evidenco of huncst and sinccro convictions. Tho condition of tho country was gradually growing worse, as tho Tarilf was from year to year decreasing ; and the tenor of their address was decidedly in favor of tho di rcct action of the Government to insure protection to American commcrco and manufactures, which they boldly proclaimed to havo been sacrificed to rrratify the slavo holding influence. I hose had al ways been tho sentiments of tho Whigs; and al- though that party could not see how tho new party, with its scanty numbers, could succeed in effecting what they had so often lulled to achieve, they felt no inducement to oiler opposition to this new attempt to rc-osscrt their principles striving to believe, though against evidenco that alt was in good faith. How far they wero from aright understanding of the influences then at work, will hereafter appear. The party was organized : they took the field and, by their means, the Locofocos, tho worst enemies of their published political faith tho veriest creatures of the iufluenco they professed to combat got possession of, and still wield tho government of the Stato : and yet this boosted Liberty l'arty exult in this stato of tilings. To show that wo fairly represent the sentiments of tlio liberty party, wo will mako a few extracts from their address and resolutions of 18 1 1. After shaking of the neglect of tlio President to attend to the interests of tlio free Slates, ninong other things they allude to tlio unequal distribution of tho proceeds of the sales of tlio public lands, by reason of siavo representation, and say: " Nor was tlio slave iufluenco satisfied with this concession. It insisted that tho distribution itself should cease, whenever tho duties should bo increased ahovo W percent., the oltjectof which was to exclude freo labor from all legislation at home as ctfec-lually aud completely as it had been from all regard in negotiation abroad. And this arrogant demand was submitted to, bocauso submission wns necessary to proscrvo tlio unity of the party. Thcso facts and numerous others of similar character, and constant occtirrcnco, have at length convinced us that no manly and rcsolulo resistance to slavo holding pro-tensions no bold and energetic assertion of the great principles of constitutional liberty can bo rationally ox ected from cither of tho two existing parties." lint it was not in the body of tlio address alono that tlio determination to contend for the protection of froo labor by a Tariff, was manifested. The samo convention that put forward tho address passed tho following resolution I " Kcsolvci, That we desire a full measure of protection and regard shall bo oxtondod to tho States whero slavery exists, so long as thru ihnll think fit anil right lo eonliiiue its ezinlrnre, wo nevertheless insist that it is tho duty siort fully la prolrcl the interests, and onlarire tlio market for the product of free labor, now every wlioro depressed, in coiisequenco of tho dereliction of tins duty on tho part ot llie Imv-. eminent, by appropriate doiucslio legislation and foreign negotiation." Hero wo have tlio reasons of the political Abolitionists for the formation of what they call tlio " Liberty Party," tho unequivocal declaration that they looked upon protection to American labor as the first duty of Government, and its omission na a good and sufficient roason for a withdrawal of all confidence. They to bo auro mourned over tho evils of slavery, but distinctly referred its abolition to tho States where it existed, and treated of it not in a moral but in a political point of view, as a thing which came in conflict with tho interests of freo labor. These eiiliuiunts wore reiterated by another convention of tho same party, at Columbus, in January, 1811 This party is impatient of all criticism, of exam ination of their proceedings, and hold every man who doubts their policy as an enemy to rational liberty, and tlio welfare of tho whole human race ; while they cutttend for tlio privilege of rioting in tho abtiso of every ono whu differs in opinion with them. Thoy alono aro orthodox, and it is the height of impiety to dissent from their notions. This ia certainly not a christian course. To denounce and banish all who cannot soo aa wo Jo, ia not in compliance, with gospel charity. Prosperity both in church and state is not to bo accomplished by promoting divisions, and building up of numerous new sects. High' tho contrary i Union is tlio grand level that gives efficacy to human c Hurts. " Divide others and conquer," is the watch-word of the marauder, and not let ua divido that wo may conquer. This is exemplified in all history. The peoplo of Israel whilo thoy constituted ono government, were formidable to all the stirmundin g nations but after they had divided into tho kingdoms of Israel and Judoh, they soon fell a prey, and were carried into captivity. The samo fata must attend all divisions of people, whoso interests are the samo. This now party hoa been in existence aa a political body not quite two years, It liaa been in the Hold one electioneering campaign ; and is busily organizing for another. It set out with tlio words ' protection to free labor," oniblazonod on its banner, aud tho oxproasion or an unalterable purpoao to nail that banner to the mast, and sink or swim with its defeat or success. And what is now its condition in that respect? liaa it maintained its political inleg-.rity ? Although we regretted ita political organization, wo should bo happy in having ita acta justify us ill answering in the affirmative, ilul truth interpo ses its veto and forbids such a response. Ambition, we fear, has triumphed over principlo ; artful men have outwitted the unsuspecting, and shaped the action of the party to the accomplishment of sinister ends. It ia well known that of the four or fivo master spirits who officiated at the political organization of the party, and who have busied themselves most in its progress sinco, three of the number reside in Hamilton county : That under their auspices, a convention of tho party for that county was held a few weeks since s that one of these gentlemen is a can didate for Congress, and another for tlio Stato Senate. Under these circumstances, there can bo no doubt but that the doings of that convention, published as they aro in the Philanthropist, the organ of the party, exhibits its present political creed. That convention passed a groat many resolutions on vari ous items of doctrine ; but wo Bhull confine our remarks to one only, as it conies in direct conflict with the grand bulwark of their political faith, their solemn league and covenant, ratified with so much seeming devotion in this city. The following is that resolution: " Resolved, That wo are ooposod to a Tariff do- signcd exclusively fur protection, and especially to a Tariff which admits wool for negro clothes free, or nearly free of duty ; while on every pound of sugar which a poor man uses, he is compelled to pay a tax of from 4 to 0 cents ; and we are in favor of a revenue Tarilf derived chiefly from luxuries, and not Irom charges on tho consumption ot tlio poor, affording incidental aid and protection to Amcrlcun free labor!" Here we have an official renunciation of the po litical creed of the so called "Liberia Party!" and the voluntary adoption of the Southern and Locofoco creed in its place. A creed, (which with the child ish exception about "wool for negro clothes" which a statesman ought to bo ashamed to utter) was published by Messrs. Calhoun, McDuffi, and tho whole corps of Southern nullificrs, years before the Liberty Party was organized, " Wo will organize, (soy thcso men) a party whose object shall bo to establish protection, and because tho Whig party dare mako 'no manly and energetic assertion' of tho rights of tho free States in that respect;" and in tho space of ono pear and ahalf this indomitahlo "Liberty Party" doffs its banner of protection, and hoists that of tho South, on which is labeled in glaring capitals, on tho ono side, "JVo Tariff for Protection," and "A Revenue Tariff" on tho other ! Was there, over since tlio promulgation of tlio first political croed known to history, such a rapid declension such nn absoluto Slid entire abandonment of tho fundamental principle of a political party? A complcto transformation of all its elements, in a period of time so short, that before the child could be tntight to lisp its ob jects, they had been repudiated by their authors, ero tho cock had crowed tho third time, thero wero none among tho leaders to do them revorenco. Forthoappoaranceofthis political phenomenon this melancholy evidence of human frailty, and cunning combined, wo will not here assign mutives : tho thing is too plain to require it at our hands. Tho muny havo becotno victims to the ambition of tho aspiring few, who lead in this matter of political insincerity ; and wo feel a well grounded confidenco that all that will bo wanting to produce its utter ex tinction, will bo a knowledge on tho part of thoso who honestly believed that what they so boastfully promised to clfect, they would bo the last to abandon. One short year ago, had an honest member of the Liberty Party, (and there may bo many such) been asked why he had ceased to act with the Whigs, ho could answer that it was because tlio Liberty men wero professedly fur a more decided system of protection to American manufactures. To this as a matter of principle, however wo might doubt its practicability by means of a division among tho friends of tho policy wo could not object Dot that answer con no lunger bo given ; the Liberty Party has repudiated the doctrines of protection : they now go for a rcriinie Tariff only ; and hence, if one of tho members should now bo asked the samo question, we know of nothing clso he could say, than that ho acted with tho party, becauso a year and a half ago ho joined it. This will not bo satisfactory to tho mind of any honest man. You might as well sny thut because you had joined a society which two years ago, proclaimed a never ending war against king Alcohol, you would still cherish your member ship, though by some chango of its creed you should bo required to devour half a gallon of spirits daily. Such inconsistency we will not bclicvo Americans capable of. In presenting thcso things to I ho public, we dis avow all hostility to Abolitionists as such. Wc have nn sympathy with slavery or its advocates ; all wo have in view, is to disabuse the public mind in regard to the insincerity of thoso who organized a political party with certain principles, and almost before tho ink with which they wero written had timo to dry, ignobly turned their backs upon them, and went over to tlio enemy. Our object is to herald thcso fuels, and to undeceive the unwary. For this puroso wo call upon tho conductors of the Whig press all ovor tho State, to bo aiding and assisting in tho matter. We prescribo no form, but wo insist upon its being dono in such manner as each may think proer. nifiitUon t'oHinr, Tlio Whigs of Madisou county held their Convention on the '-'ml inst., and nominated Dr. Au.uilla Tolasd for Representative.

That it is impossible that such difficulties should arise from the action of domestic trade. 4. That this buying too much draws tho specie out of the country, and undermines the currency. 5. That tlio only way to prevent this buying too much is too establish and maintain a rcslrictivo and protectivo policy. 0. That tho only parties boncfittcd by this immense injury to the country, are foreign Governments, foreign manufacturers, and a fow importing merchants among ourselves. 7. That we can never havo a forcirn trado profit able to the country, or otherwise than injurous, till this practice of buying too much of foreign nations be suppressed. 8. That the importance of foreign trade is com-moi )y overrated, and that American self-dependence is a more sate reliance. !). That the products of manufactures are cheap ened, and the wages of labor enhanced, by protectivo nuues. 10. That both American labor and American cap ital are victims of European capital and labor, on tlio platform of freo trado. 11.

Wo are daily meeting with facts illustrating tho benign influences of our present Tarilf, and tho mpui march ot improvement in our country under ita auspicies. The following facts wo learned from a Western gentleman a day or two sinco. At or near the village of Hamilton, llio capital of littler county, Ohio, the Miami river lias just been thoroughly dammed so aa to turn all its waters when low into a raceway, on which a fall ia obtained of twenty-eight teet, Willi water oiMngli 10 carry one hundred and filly run of stone. The whole cost of the water-works is shout 10,111)0 : and, although tho colerpriso is of very recent commencement, already two cotton factories, a woolen factory, and fivo or six heavy grist-mills sre going up on this wster privilege, whilo there is abundant power fur many tunes tho number. The location ia directly on tlio Miami Canal, requiring but a short cut to load and unload Wheat Flour, t'otlon, ic, directly from the Canal into the factories ami mills : llio distance is buttwenty-live- miles from Cincinnati, a city uf seventy thou sand inhabitants, ot as largo aa Huston waa in INK); and Coal, Iron, cVc, can be delivered hero from the Ohio as cheaply as above high-water mark in Cm cinnati. Cullon from below can b delivered at ilia factories as cheaply ss in New Orleans. All this ia in the midst of a rich, well settled, thrifty Farming country, whera provisions coal ou tire avcraga but half aa much as at Lowell, while Coiton and nearly overy other material is much cheaper. Every tiling, therefore, conspires to justify the confident belief that here the foundation hits been laid on a City destined to rival the rroot Eastern motmn. olis of Maufacturing. The advantage of such an enterprise to the whole surrounding region cannot bo over-estimated. It win increaso tho value of all fixed properity, and nearly double that of Labor and ita products. It will tend to counteract the disproportion of the sex esthe excess of MaleB in the West, of the Females in the bast, which is now great, and greatly to be regretted. It will rcduco tho price generally of whatever tho neighboring peoplo have to buy and increaso that of tho articles thev now nrodnen 10 sr. cess, tending to produco a wholosomo equilibrium in all things. This is one instance among a hundred of similor bonign enterprises now approaching thoir consummation under tho genial shelter of our Nnur 'I'.rilf Tho hundreds would bo thousands, if tho hope that the present Tariff would be permonent were ripened to a certainty.

"Shall I hold your horse, sir?" said a nice-looking, well-spoken boy at tho uppor reservoir. J was pioasea witn nis appearance aud address, and after a walk around the stone parapet, prepared to return nome. "my lime leuow, would you like to learn a trade? if you would, you shall havo a placo in a printing office." "Thank yer honor," said a portly looking Irishwoman, me and me four children live in that house there, and maka a decent living; I should not like to part with the boy at all." " Phot house," referred to, waa a wretch-od mud hovel a shanty with a Binglo room, and yet tho mother contrived to bring up four children in it with so much contentment, Uiat sho was unwilling to part with one, alUiough it might evidently hove bettered hia fortunes. "How strangely is society divided," said my friend, who took his seat in the bug gy as wo were about rcturniug to the city. "I havo also four children, and yet my house with thirteen rooms in it, and for which I pay f 1,000 per annum, ia not big enough to contain them."

I bclievo we are beginning to find out Uie folly of making sacrifices to keep up appearances. Tho credit of a man in business ia now strengthened in a house plainly furnished, is frugal in his living, man ages a safe penny, make a decent appearance wiUi- out the aid ot tashtuuaute extravagance, does nothing for effect, and makes no costly eDtertarnsr.enai ' How mnercnt it wra ui trOU. It was a furious contest for extravagant and costly rivalry, li on man in business hired a largo bouse, furnished it splendidly, kept a sptnbing pair of bays aud a butonche, another caughc tho infection and also hired a larger house, furnished it more splendidly, and sported a more olegont barouche or vis-a-vis than his neighbor; and thus competition, rivalry, and fashionablo opposition involved groat outlays; failure followed failure, and in a short time Uiese aspiring bloods crowded upon each other in tho list of bankrupU. It is incredible how evil examples are closely imita- tod. If my neighbor, no bettor off Uian myself, Uvea extravagantly, sees company, givea good dinners, has a box at the opera, and keeps a fast trotter, I am in a measure restless and discontented till I can do the same: Uie contagion spreads we are all in tho infected district, and all have a touch of the disease, all take the samo medicine, and all are equally prostrated. Now if we were more disposed to nnilato what was worthy of imitation, economy, propriety, comfort without ostentation, simplicity in living, plainness of manners, and absence ot allsclt-sutu-ciency, how much better we would all be off in the world. When shall the reform commence? Wo answer now, from this very moment Better times prevail: soy what we will, wc hove better times. The sur face begins to be smooth, the billows and upheav- ings aro less agitated; confidenco is beginning to bo gradually restored; what business is dono, is dono with less profit it is truo, but with more security; it is hard to earn a silver dollar, yet, witli ordinary managomcnt, it will go farther and provido much more than it did in IrvKi. We havo seen Uie worst ; let us improve tho present by introducing every where a ririd economy, and save a six-pence when ever he can do so. Let us begin by discarding every tiling looking liko show and ostentation; let us study comfort and givo up luxurica altogether. Alow months ago 1 was led by curiosity to attend a sale of splendid furniture in a spacious houso lit ono of our fashionable squares, Every Uiing was on tho most costly scslo, and paid for out of Uio money procured from the unguarded credit system. Looking-glasses of $500 each; window curtains $o00 each; satin-covered rosewood chairs, too frail and delicate to sit upon; the whole outlay for turni-lure was somewhat over if 10,000, and brought scarcely one half that sum. I knew the lady and her two daughters well; they wore Uiin and pale from want of a healthy laborious exercise; Uiey looked discon tented and unsettled, out of sorts with every thing; Uiey were about to enter upon compulsion, on a new courso of life; to pursue a rigid economy, to live upon their actual earnings, and it made them uneasy and fretful. A short time after the sole, passing a small ncot two story house, of 100 rent, one oftho young ladies tapped at the window, Uircw it it up, and asked mc to come in. I waa surprised and pleased al thn chango I saw in every thing. The girla looked fieah and rosy, were dressed with great ncauicss and Uio mother appeared quite happy and contented. Every thing waa plain; a Kidderminster carpet was on tho floor, choirs cheap and substantial, on Uio mantlo-piece were vases filled with fresh flowers, instead of Uio $500 clock and Ormula candclobraa. "We take great oxcreise now," said tlio mother, "having no carriage wo are obliged to walk; the girls rub Uie furniture, dust the things and go lo market; we have nothing aupcrfluoua; we purchase for our family just on half wo did in Place: we keep but one girl, and when breakfast and dinner aro ready, you canntit imagine bow hungry wo are, how wo enjoy our meal, everything tssirts sweet for we prepare il ettrselveo, and we sleep like tops; every thing has changed for the better." And to it had; thoy had discovered the fully of competitioii, ef striving to liva as extravagant as their neighbors, nnd had eoocrasl down to the comforts and aeotiomy of life, and were realizing aubstanUal benefits from Uio chango; Uiey had Uio moral courage to rise above tho sneers of tho proud and Uie fictitioua sympathy of professing friends. They are now contented, and contentment is happiness. The Mineral District of Ohio. I said Uiat the variety of our productions waa a moat invaluablo feature in our country ; and I cannot call to mind a Slato in Uie Union, which haa more wealth in Uiia respect than Ohio. Pennsylvania hue a vast amount of coal and iron. But then Pennsylvania haa nut aa much arable land aa Ohio, and ia totally deficient in Uiat great alluvial plain, which like Egypt la capable of feeding indefinite numbers of men and caltlo. New York hos groat commercial advantages; but U'on Now York has no coal, and has but a small part of the groat western grain region. Tennessee has as groat a variety ol products, ss any State ; but then Tennesseo cannot approach Ohio, in Uie growth of wheat So that, 1 Uiink, Ohio on Uio whole, haa aa ffreat a variety of natural advantages, and productions, as any other Stale whatever. Of thcso, Uio mineral district from which I writo, is not tho least On tho Ohio river, it extends nearly the wholo distance from tho Scioto to tho Muskingum, and runs northeastwardly until it reach es Uio Istke. It covers probably one fourth Uio aur-face of Uio State, and contain full as much of coal, iron, salt and freestone, with some leas important nia- ii nais, aa tne population ot the Stato will ovor need. The beat bodies of coal and iron, are traversed bv the Ohio public works, or touched hv the Ohio river : so that these treasures of Uie useful arts, are accessible and marketable. But one of Uio most important features of Uiis district is, Uio land is all mllira-lable, and the Slalo loses not ono acre of productive land, by Uio fact that it embosoms valuable miner-als. It is hilly grazing: land. Hut the verv nlae r,,- dairics, and for sheep. The corn and bread must be supplied from tho mora arable districts. Thus, there win ultimately no in tins slalo itself, a complete interchange of all the varioua productions which feed Art and Commcicc. Cincinnati Chronicle. A VtHrtifliinlNf . :r j.. ,i . -. . .
